Judges 2007

[pc]

ok what has happened to pages 8,9,10 they were there went they and now they have gone !!!! seems great chunks of comments have been lost ! were they naughty comments ?

[Guestless]

The thread has been pruned a bit as it was rather off topic in places and an extremely long thread is difficult for people who are still on dial up.

Hi

I had my Royal Welsh Show Schedule today. Just wanted a bit of help regarding 3 Judges - I haven't competed under any of them before, just wondered what they go for, likes/ dislikes, etc

Constructive comments please!!!

SHP - Mr J W Nash, Highfield Farm, B Ham

Welsh Part-bred - Mr Gwyn Dobbs, Crickhowell, Powys

Riding Pony Breeding - Vin Toulson, Leics

Thanks in advance!

Anyone know anything about Mrs R Bown (could be typo for Brown) of Chesham, Bucks? She is doing the conformation section of the M&M open riddens at the Royal Highland. Thanks.

Rachel Bown is a very experienced judge. She will be very fair & won't judge a face. She is a favourite of mine simply because i know that you get a fair trial with her & if she likes your pony you will do well.

[bob fan]

yes Guestless i was wondering who she was as well as it was meant to be Davina Whiteman, as you know the Highland shuts so early, silly really in this age of email etc

so please anybody know her and useful comments
look forward to replies

Thank you - that's all I needed to hear

[hello]

T. Pesci-Griffiths anyone?

[reply]

Confirm R.Bown is a fair judge she likes what she likes regardless doesnt matter who is on it, very experienced lady

[ponygirl]

I'd re-iterate what Enthusiast has said about Mrs Bown - one of my favourites! In my experience does not like anything fat and stuffy

Thanks again - I'll put another rider on my pony then!

All the pruning is completed for now (alot lof off topic chatter between the same people) - but it will be pruned regularly to keep it to a manageable size.

So please try and keep on topic if you can

Kent County Show - Olympia - Mrs Furness

[Dartmoor]

Always has a Dartmoor to win the small breeds. Guess the Picton Champ grey pony of the Harrisons is in with a very big chance.

We have recently been judged by Mrs. Furness at our HOTY (Australia) in February. We produced and showed the Highland stallion Fyfedene on behalf of his owner and recieved the Supreme Ridden M&M award.

Sorry for going off topic, but good to read Fyfe is still doing well. He's a totally different colour now but still looks great.

Any posts that are not on topic have been removed. this is in order to make the thread easier to navigate by people seeking information on judges.
It is at the moderators disgression whether they wish to post as their user name or their real name. Let me assure you that we are none of us anyone particularly interesting!!!! But we do try our best to remain neutral in order to keep discussions fair and clean and personally I think that the anonimity aids this.

Now this has been said, can we please get the thread back on topic-anymore post that digress from it WILL be removed.

Hi Can people help me with with what they think of Mrs V Hamptons juding?
We are looking at M&M WHP classes with a Sec A.
She is listed to be judging at THREE of these qualifiers - 2 jumping and 1 conformation - i thought (but could and often are wrong!!) they could only judge at two shows - doing one of each (conf and Jump) if the classes were RI or HOYS qualifiers?
Any comments on her judging would be greatly received - thankyou

[ponygirl]

Mrs V Hampton - another one of my favourites. A very knowledgeable lady who in my experience judges very fairly on what she sees on the day.

[timmy]

under bsps rules, judges can do 2 rihs and 1 hoys qualifiers of each section, ie sp, shp, whp. mandm

[rose]

Viv Hampton great judge would like manners manners and bone
likes a pony to be true to breed type.

very fair judge and not not not facey i dont think she really reconises anyone so go under her if she is judging and you pony has impecable manners, will put wrong legs right down.

[fairjudgeseeker]

thanx everyone - i am now looking forward to spending my money going under a fair judge - esp as our Sec A is very true to type, has good manners and has masses of bone!!

[rose]

Does anyone know anything about Mrs Rampling and Mr Woods judging at the royal please.

[guestty]

P Baulch anyone? inhands at Norfolk?

Ta!

[Confirm]

Viv Hampton super judge, been in the game a long time and will always judge the pony, she is never interested in who bred it - whos riding it she she likes them to move correctly and knows her stuff on confirmation, shame there are not more like her

[Mmmm]

Matter of opinion confirm.

[rose]

Yes viv hampton very fair judge likes manners and bone

[Anyone know]

Anyone know anything about Mr A J Williams?? Judging a BSPS class I am thinking of entering.
